We will spend about N10 billion to maintain the 469 members of our National Assembly in the next 24 months. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/News/National/5473660-146/story.csp |

These salaries is still high.No wonder we practise "DO OR DIE" politics in nigeria.A Phd holder who spent close to 20yr studying, is earning abt N2.5m per annum.A professor earns about N3.0m/annum,a banker earns about N2.5m/annum.All these are not up to half of d salaries of a hon member not to talk of a senator.Kai politics is very rewarding |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by puskin: 1:16pm On Oct 25, 2009 |
Damn. The salary of 469individuals is 10billion naira, until now it was 13billion. No comment for now. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Pharoh: 1:32pm On Oct 25, 2009 |
puskin: They are expecting us to praise them for the reduction because of the economic crisis. |

take away money from politics and we would have less bloodshed. Your security men that pretend to keep the law that is made are no fools. Law making should be voluntary service. The makers of the law should be people of respect and the fear of God. The keepers of the law should be paid those monies not the makers of the law. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Pharoh: 4:46am On Oct 26, 2009 |
How many laws have they made since 1999? They are just a bunch of thief's. I suggest they should all be part time law makers and be paid just the minimum wage simple since they will have their own private jobs. Then all these stealing will stop. |

Still does not explain the source of Bankole's almost 400 million purchase. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by naijatoday: 4:58am On Oct 26, 2009 |
Kobojunkie: was bankole poor before he joined politics, I am just asking? |

RMAFC or whatever body that makes these recommendations are the real enemies of the poor in this country. These allocations have no co-relation with market forces in whatever sector of the economy, from the price of gai and pure water to house rents. These guys on a gravy train. The breast and nipple of Nigeria is in their stomach, not on their lips, literally. No wonder Farida is asking for a mental examination. It will be very interesting to know what the Chairman or whoever is the head there allocates to himself. |

So u think this salary is the cause of our problems, naaaaa The salary is small compared to d real corruption going on in those places. They make more money from shady deals. If they take this salary alone n work, our democracy will not be as costly as it is. If you want to know - wives of LG chairmen are paid salaries. Wives of State assembly members are also given official cars. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by longfem: 1:07pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
The salary is nothing compare to what they siphon on daily basis |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by mikeoscar: 1:24pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
If you want to know - wives of LG chairmen are paid salaries. Wives of State assembly members are also given official cars. @hayo. Tell me this is a joke or explain how. Is this offocially acceptable or a few LG Chairmen are just abusing their positions? |

Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Nobody: 3:25pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
In a country where an average nigerian earn less than a dollar,our retarded dishourable members are busy enriching themselves,,stupid people! |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Kobojunkie: 3:30pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
naijatoday: Not sure how rich he was, but I doubt he was 400 million naira rich. That is why I am requesting an investigation be carried out cause it just is fishy. I mean this same man purchased vehicles worth millions and now this? |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Pharoh: 3:53pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
chosen04: My sister they were SELECTED, as a matter of fact i don't even know the senator that is representing my LGA. I never remembered any senator that has been recalled before so we don't have that option. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by princekevo(m): 3:56pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
Now am very much cleared where our oil money goes to. To the pocket of our so called politicians minus all their egunje. |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Pharoh: 4:08pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
But i heard the civil servants and ministry workers are more corrupt? I am not forgetting the government agencies as well |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by fekwenugo2: 4:09pm On Oct 26, 2009 |

Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by Nobody: 4:29pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
chosen04: tell us the truth did you vote if you voted and probably ur father is the elected representative then we would understand your angle for you to jump into defense of known political thieves in this country tells a lot about you so are u among those eating stolen funds directly or indirectly |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by applepiece(m): 5:32pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
By all standard, this is the reason, the money politics that ended in the U S of A some 200 years ago will still continue to flourish in Nigeria. take the US ex president, Bill Clinton as an example, he couldn't afford him self an owner occupied house until some good Americans came to his aid after his regime. Not withstanding Nigerians are not HUNGRY people at the top, but that cash is still a RUBBERY of the NIGERIAN populace. I never finishoooo, |

What's all the noise about? Did anybody stop Ph.d holders from applying for public office? If you like the salary join the race na!! I'm sure the salaries of 469 oil company executives in this country will be at par if not more ? Pls shine your eyes, there's dough in the land - stop complaining and go find your share. Stop hating!! After all DID YOU VOTE We're getting what we deserve in terms of leaders 'cos they will ALWAYS be selected from the flock!!! |
Re: New And Revised Allowance For Nigerian Lawmakers by bawomolo(m): 5:58pm On Oct 26, 2009 |
marissa: i didn't know the goal of politics was to find one's share. |
